We Feel Lonely Only When We Haven't Cultivated Well

Jan. 5, 2012 |   By a Dafa practitioner in China

(Clearwisdom.net) Last night, I suddenly realized that a genuine cultivator fundamentally doesn't feel lonely. For “Fa-rectification period Dafa disciples,” who are in this world together with our revered Master, the word “lonely” shouldn't exist. Time has been extended by Master's bearing all karma for the sake of allowing more opportunities to save all sentient beings in the colossal firmament. The purpose is to allow Fa-rectification period Dafa disciples to save more sentient beings and forge higher positions.

Master has revealed all that is to be disclosed to us – What are the old forces, what is thought karma, what are human attachments, why we should pay attention to our safety, and so on. These Fa principles have been illustrated clearly.

When doing Dafa projects, sometimes we may not know why we need to do things that seem ordinary. Although sometimes we still do it despite lack of understanding, the effect is foreseeable. Of course, all of this is part of our cultivation process, a process of xinxing cultivation and of maturing upon understanding the Fa principles.

Master's Fa principles are the true reality. It is different from the so-called reality in human society. Master teaches us the true elements of existence and issues in the colossal firmament. As Master's disciples, upon understanding this, we shouldn't act irrationally. We should study the Fa well. Master has arranged for us to do things, and Master has reasons for each arrangement that are all heavenly secrets.

Some fellow practitioners like following people but not the Fa. They do the same things as other practitioners. They are fond of asking others what to do. They also like to ask those fellow practitioners they deem as high-level. Some even want to find a companion to marry. They depend on each other and fall into the traps of emotion. This type of practitioner is usually not very rational. They act on emotions and like to find others to lean on. They don't actively seek answers in the Fa.

We cultivate our main spirit. If we follow others on everything, how are we going to forge ourselves? Everyone's path is different, and his or her achievements are different. Sometimes I am truly anxious upon seeing such practitioners. Master and the Fa are here, so why can't we genuinely cultivate our xinxing? We should try our best to eliminate all the human attachments we uncover.

Of course, some practitioners who are married have been doing very well. They are clear on their wishes of coming to the human world. They have been cooperating well with other practitioners on projects that validate the Fa, and they have validated the Fa and achieved a rational and calm state with regard to desire and love. They have clear understandings based on the Fa and don't experience much interference from human attachments. They are walking on the divine path returning to their realms.

Master leads us and has created the unprecedented Shen Yun Performing Arts. It is so beautiful! When we are making truth-clarifying materials, shouldn't we handle each piece of material responsibly? We should truly know what we are doing. Shouldn't we consider Dafa's image? We should act from the basics and validate the beauty of Dafa. We should emphasize quality as well as quantity. We put a lot of thought into our own looks. We consider others' opinions, the match of colors, and the gracefulness of the style. I think we should put more thought into how to best handle Dafa projects. Otherwise, even though we do Dafa projects, the projects could end up being patronized or muddled through.

Practitioners outside of China conduct professional trainings to introduce Shen Yun. I understand it not to be some sort of organizational meeting, or training of sales technique, but of fellow practitioners sharing about how to better save sentient beings. If people can hear more beautiful words and see more beautiful images, isn't it to move their hearts, to increase their trust in us and awaken their memories? When producing, distributing, and introducing our truth-clarification materials, we should make the materials more beautiful. We are not doing this for money or fame, we just want everyday people to be saved upon understanding the truth because this is their only hope for salvation.

In Hong Yin Volume III, there is a poem titled “Saving You Is Truly Heavy.” It is truly heavy in the sense of significance and difficulty.

Whenever I hear the song “Ode to Master,” I cry. I think of Master's sacrifices and my historic vows. Have I done what I should do? Have I done it well? Have I left no regrets? Sometimes I feel it is difficult and feel tired. Sometimes I feel lonely and want to find a companion in life. All of these are human attachments I need to break through. Every step I take is walking on the divine path. I know why I have come and why I was born into this world.

No matter what my future will be, I will walk my final path well despite all hardships. I sincerely thank Master for helping me understand that I am a particle to be completely assimilated to the Fa, a Dafa disciple who assists Master in rectifying the Fa, a Dafa disciple who's concerned with saving sentient beings—so how can I be lonely? Only when I haven't done all I should do well will I ever feel lonely.
